MCC is reaching out to high school students who are not on track to graduate on time, are on the verge of dropping out or have dropped out. MCC's nationally recognized Gateway to College program gives current or past Omaha Public School high school students ages 16-20 the chance to earn their high school diploma while simultaneously earning college credits. The next Gateway to College classes begin on March 8, the start of MCC's Spring quarter. If you are interested in participating in or learning more about the Gateway to College program, attend one of the upcoming information sessions on Jan. 30 or Feb. 6, 13.
